The height of the tree is the man's height plus x.

$\tan 26^{\circ}=\frac{x}{16}\\x = 16 \tan 26^{\circ}$

So, the height of the tree is $\boxed{(16 \tan 26^{\circ}+1.8) \text{ m}}$

Can two obtuse angles be complementary

Norma-Jean [14]

Complementary angles are angles that add up to 90 degrees.

Obtuse angles are greater than 90 degrees, so there's no way
to add two of them together and get a sum that's smaller than
either one already is.

The answer to the question is 'No'.

(a+b)2 ;a=1/2 and b=2

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

$\frac{25}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b = $\frac{1}{2}$ + 2 = 2 $\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{5}{2}$ , thus

(a + b)² = ( $\frac{5}{2}$ )² = $\frac{5}{2}$ × $\frac{5}{2}$ = $\frac{5(5)}{2(2)}$ = $\frac{25}{4}$
